How to sort Keywords Alphabetically in iPHOTO 6

HI.
When creating keywords in iPHOTO 06 they appear as added to the pop-up list in the order in which they are entered. While they can be sorted manually, I have been trying to discover if there is a way the keywords will automatically sort in this list alphabetically. It would make for searching for keywords much easier. This would make alot of sense to me. Once you get over 50 keywords searching a list not in alphabetical sequence becomes quite difficult. Thanks, G!

Sorry, but I don't think there is.
For large numbers of keywords I find Keyword Manager indispensable. It includes nested keywords.

How to sort photos alphabetically in iPhone 6 plus

HI there,
When I sync with iPhone 6 Plus, all photos from iPhoto wasn't sorted by name alphabetically on the iPhone 6Plus 64Gb.

Hi bangalorer,
If that didn't help resolve the issue, then I'd like you to toggle Airplane mode on and then off. This will force your iPhone to reconnect to your cellular data network, which is what is required for the Weather app to refresh. If the issue still isn't resolved, then reset your network settings.
Use Airplane Mode on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Reset network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.Resetting network settings on your device will erase all current saved settings, including Wi-Fi passwords, preferred networks, and VPN settings.

How to sort just videos on iPhoto?

I'm running out of memory and need to edit/delete some of my videos on iphoto. Is there a way to sort to just find videos?
Thanks!

Provice details - without knowing the version of iPhoto tha tyou have we are only making guesses - Matt's sugestion is the most likely - but with details guesses woudl not be necessary
To trash photos in iPhoto you do not drag them to the system trash (the trash in the lower right hand corner) - you select the image in an event and press the delete key and empth the Photo trash (and in newer versions of ipHoto the system trash too)
If you have an older version of iPhoto try a smart album with keyword is movie

How do I add a keyword tag in iPhoto on the iPad?

I looked through the Help for iPhoto and couldn't find a section on how to add keyword tags to my images.
Things like the names of the people in the photos, etc.
The screen shots of iPhoto show a Face Taggging feature.
How do I get to that?
Thanks for any help or advice!

I talked with Apple Support.
The iPhoto app on the iPad is not the same as iPhoto on the Mac.
It doesn't support adding keyword tags.
Possibly a feature to be added in the future.
I have iCloud enabled for PhotoStream.
So my iPad picture was sent automatically to my download folder on my pc.
I can take it from there into PhotoShop Elements and add the tags.

Why are my photos sorted alphabetical in iPhoto (which is what I want) but in date order on my iPhone & iPad?

How to make a alphabetical list of names

How to create an alphabetical list of names

Dale:
In the Photos window turn off the Event Titles so all you see are the photos. Then sort by keyword, ascending or desending. The photos without a keyword will be at one end of the display of photos. Find all of the photo without a keyword and batch add a new, unique keyword. Then make a smart album with the criteria Keyword is not "XXXX".

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

How can I back up the iPhoto library when iPhoto won't open and I can't simply copy the iPhoto library packet because "some of the data in the packet cannot be read from or written to"?

Regarding not being able to open iPhoto. As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Were you able to create a new library?
If so then your current library is damaged and needs to be repaired.
Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start
with Option #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

How do i properly erase an iphoto folder?

unfortunately (and ironically), in my paranoia to not lose any photos, i've imported similar photos several times into iphoto. i then used iphoto diet, but it does strange things sometimes - in my experience, it doesn't always remove the proper duplicate (but the thumbnail), etc. so i've resorted to manually sorting each of 15K (ouch!) photos to remove the correct duplicate. i do this by sorting through the photos for different years. i've started working on 2004, and wanted to start with a clean slate and erase all the photos, then only import the orinigals i want, but iphoto 'residually' shows the saved thumbnails (i think they're thumbnails b/c they are only about 16kb, and don't open to full size - i get the 'white screen' that others have mentioned). i entered the iphoto folder (i know - a no no, but didn't know how else to erase 2004 photos) and deleted the 2004 folder.
sorry for being so wordy - can you suggest a way to eliminate my 2004 photos in a way that would be iphoto-friendly ?
thanks for any suggestions.

There are several ways to erase photos, slideshows and albuns from iPhoto.
First of all, to make you more feel secure all you photos are actually in your iPhoto library- that means they have been copied to you pictures folder. Whatever you do with them, the originals are kept. I mean, if you have one photo in a certain album and if you erase it from that album, the original is kept in the Library and pictures folder. All iPhoto does is like an alias to the Library, so it is perfectly safe to erase an album or slideshow in iPhoto, since the real photos are in the Library, and the most real ones are still kept in the pictures folder on the finder.
..."how do i properly erase an iphoto folder?"- select it and press "delete" or on the "edit" menu--> "erase/delete/cut"... again... don't worry about the content of this folder/album, because they will remain either on the iPhoto Library and pictures folder on the Finder.
Sorry to be so confusing...
Hope I've been helpfull.

How can I access my old iphoto libary on my newer laptop? I have a new iphoto folder on my laptop so I don't want to lose my current photos. I just want to add more.

How can I access my old iphoto libary on my newer laptop?
I have a new iphoto folder on my laptop so I don't want to lose my current photos. I just want to add more.

Do the following:
rename the old library to something other that iPhoto Library.
copy the library to the Pictures folder on your new laptop.
launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select the old library to open it and convert it to the newer version.
Note: if the older version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 on it before opening with iPhoto on your new laptop.
If you want to merge the two libraries into one library and keep the edited versions, keywords, titles, etc. you'll need to use the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager to do the merging.

HT4236 Hello, does anyone have any advice on how to sort photos in an albumn on an Iphone by date of photo? I've ordered them all in my Pictures but then when I sync them across through Itunes, they all end up in a jumble on my phone. Thanks!

Hello, does anyone have any advice on how to sort photos in an albumn on an Iphone by date of photo? I've ordered them all in my Pictures but then when I sync them across through Itunes, they all end up in a jumble on my phone. Thanks!

When viewing an album on the iPhone you can tap "Photos" at the bottom and that will show all photos by date. Unfortunately though it is all photos, not just the album you are currently viewing.
What I have done is the following. On the computer I have a main folder (e.g. iPhone photos) and then make sub-folders within that. Placing photos that will be synched to the iPhone into various subfolders gives quite a bit of organizational capablility. In iTunes when you select the main folder to sync, the sub-folders will show on the iPhone as separate albums. Beyond that, in one case where I really wanted a specific sort within an album I renamed the photos on the computer (something like A-picxxx, B-picxxx) so they sorted on the computer alphabetically in the order I want on the phone. That sort order was maintained after the sync.
Note that each time you sync using iTunes, the non-Camera Roll pictures on the phone will be set to match the current iTunes settings/photos -- so you can experiment.

How to sort photo events by date and avoid having duplicated photos on iPhone 6+

How to sort photo events bby date and avoid having duplicated photos. Before the sorting by date worked perfectly by specifying "sort events by date ascending" in iPhoto from my Mac. Now the sorting from iPhoto has no more effect on the iPhones. And photos are often duplicated when synchronisin. Before these problems didn't happen. How to do?

You can not -- neither automatically or manually - you should never be in the masters folder and there is never a need to be - iPhoto is a SQLite database and it's database structure is determined by it (and changes from time to time) - use the supported access methods (direct access to the photo files is not supported and never has been) - either using iPhoto or using the media browser in the lower left hand corner of every open/attach/iupload window
It is CRITICAL that you NEVER make any changes of any sort to the structure or content of the iPhoto library using the finder or any program other than iPhoto

Sorting in alphabetical order

How can I sort paragraphs alphabetically in Pages 09?

Inside the WordService 2.7 download folder is a file called ReadMe.rtf double click it and it should open in Text Edit and says:
"Installation:
+Copy WordService into the directory "Services" (located in the Library folder of your home directory), then log out and log in again. If there's no such folder, just create one using the Finder."+
In the side bar on the lefthand side of every open Finder window should be a little house icon probably with your name next to it. This is your computer account.
Click on it and find the folder labeled Library which should contain another folder called Services. If you don't have a Services folder create one:
+Menu > New Folder > click on it and name it "Services"+
Drag WordService.service from your downloaded WordService folder into the above folder. +Do not+ drag the whole folder in.
Now you will find the contained services under every application (including Finder) menu (eg the Pages menu) in a submenu called Services. There are many services in the menu. The specific services you want are +Format > Sort Lines Ascending/Descending.+
